HEYA I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU

HOPE IT FITS YOU

the CP be 100

gain% =17%

gain = gain %/100 *100

      =17/100*100

gain=17

Sp-Cp=gain

sp-100=17

SP=17+100

SP=117

discount= 10% of MP

let MP be x

10/100x=1/10x

discount =1/10x

SP=MP-discount

117=x-1x/10

10x/10 - 1x/10=117

9x/10=117

9x=117*10

x=1170/9

x=MP=130

MP-CP=difference between both

130-100= 30

convert the difference into percent

difference/CP*100

30/100*100

30%

therefore, the MP is 30% above the CP.

HOPE IT HELPS YOU ANYWAY ...

WISH YOU A WONDERFUL DAY AHEAD

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let's say cp=100

given

d=10%

p=17%

we know,

mp(100-d%)=cp(100+p)

mp(100-90)=100(100+17)

on solving,we'll get

mp=130

then

profit=sp-cp

       =130-100=30

profit%=30/100*100

          =30.
